The driver stopped with his flashers on and called his cousins for help. When they arrived, the cousins parked in front of the disabled car and left their lights on, as the battery was dying in the disabled car.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Reid entered the on-ramp driving a Ram pickup truck and hit the left front of the stranded car, according to the police incident report. The driver was sitting in the car and was not injured.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Reid\u2019s pickup then slammed into the rear of the cousins\u2019 car. The driver and an adult in the front passenger seat were not injured. But a 4-year-old and a 5-year-old sitting in the back were both injured and taken to the hospital, the 5-year-old with life-threatening injuries.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Head coach Andy Reid offered his support to Young and her family after the Super Bowl, which the Chiefs lost to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 31 to 9.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy heart goes out to all those that were involved in the accident, in particular the little girl who is fighting for her life,\u201d Reid said. \u201cI can\u2019t comment any more than what I am here, so the questions that you have, I\u2019m going to have to turn those down at this time.
